Markets We Serve

At IA Coatings, we are far more than just a coating and application provider—we are a trusted solutions partner across a wide range of industries and markets. From high-level government contracts to hands-on retail applications, our work is built around one core promise: precision, protection, and performance.

Government and Military

We proudly serve federal, state, and local agencies through our registration with SAM.gov, CAGE, and ITAR compliance. As a Veteran-Owned and Operated Small Business (VOSB), we understand mission-critical needs and deliver coatings for defense systems, tactical components, aerospace hardware, and high-security infrastructure.

OEMs & Industrial Manufacturing

Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) trust IA Coatings for durable, high-performance coatings that meet exacting standards. Whether it’s corrosion protection, thermal resistance, or friction reduction, we support production lines with coatings that extend the life and reliability of every part.

Business-to-Business (B2B) Applications

We partner with machine shops, fabricators, engineering firms, and contract manufacturers to coat everything from prototype parts to full production runs. We offer short lead times, lot tracking, and precision masking for even the most complex components.

Retail & Direct-to-Consumer

Our services also extend to individual and retail customers looking for elite-quality finishes. From firearms and suppressors to motorcycle parts, knives, tools, and custom gear, we provide Cerakote® and Blackstone™ coatings with professional-grade performance and personalized design.

At IA Coatings, no matter the scale of your project or the industry you’re in, our goal remains the same—to provide world-class coatings with unmatched precision and care.
